The Pilot 7 May 1924
The funeral of Mrs. G. S. Van Deusen, the editor's mother, was held at the family residence on Davis Avenue last Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock. We laid her away by the side of her companion for fifty-six years, whose funeral was held less than four weeks before. Near, too, are four little ones who have slept in tiny graves for many years. During her illness she either saw them in reality or in fancy and kissed the pillow by her side saying she was kissing the baby.

Mrs. G. S. Van Deusen
Mrs. G. S. Van Deusen, an old and highly respected citizen of this county and city, passed away Tuesday morning, April 29, at her home in west Blair after a long and serious illness of heart trouble.
Mrs. Van Deusen was ill at the time of her husband's death which occurred the first week in April.
The deceased was born in Ohio in 1844 and came to Nebraska with her husband and children over fifty years ago.
They lived for many years on a farm near Kennard, where the son, C. C. now lives. Retiring from farm life they moved to Blair in 1901 where they have since resided.
She is survived by six children, John Chamberlain of Norfolk, Claude C. and H. G. Van Deusen of Kennard, D. C. Van Deusen of Blair, Mrs. Henry Kasbohn of Dunbar, Neb. and Mrs. Don J. Gammel of Tekamah.

Mrs. G. S. Van Deusen, the editor's mother, died quite suddenly at 12:30 yesterday morning. She had been sick with heart trouble for about five weeks, at times so low that her death was hourly expected, but she had rallied and was distinctly better last Wednesday, sat up part of the time and ate heartily for her condition. She had been a dazed, partially unconscious state from which she was only aroused occasionally, but that day she was herself and things and people seemed natural to her. We had hopes of her recovery, but the next day she wasn't quite so well but there seemed little change up to Monday when she suffered a good deal of pain. At about midnight she had a severe pain in the back of her head and a little later while sitting by the side of the bed she suddenly collapsed with a moan and when she was gotten back on the bed she was dead, evidently from a cerebral hemorrhage. She had lived just 26 days longer than her companion of fifty-six years, his death occurring April 3rd.
Hannah Green was born in Marietta, Ohio, January 19th, 1844, so was past 80 years of age. She grew to womanhood there and was married to John Chamberlain in October of 1864 whose death occurred just six months later. One son, John, was born to them, but he never saw his father. On December 12th, 1968, she was married to Gerrett S. Van Deusen and they came to Nebraska in 1873, settling on the Papio five miles southwest of Blair, where they lived until 1901, when they moved to the house in this city where her death occurred. She is survived by six children, J. A. Chamberlain, of Norfolk, Neb., Claude C. and H. G. Van Deusen, of Kennard, Mrs. Henry Kasbohn, of Dunbar, Neb., Mrs. Don J. Gammel, of Tekamah, and the writer. Also one sister, Miss Kate Green, of Beverly, Ohio, the only survivor of a family of five. There are 18 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren. She was a member of the W. R. C.
